Really like the jungle feel You did a good job hiding the filter intake & powerhead

never did get round to removing that sticker

How many dwarf puffers/ottos could this tank comfortably house?

thanks for all positive responses , but surely some negative/suggestions?

Should be ok for 2 Dwarf Puffers since it's heavily planted.... I'm saying that with caution since DPs are a bit unpredictable. Each and every one has different personality. They are absolutely hilarious to watch though

I don't keep any ottos myself (haven't seen any yet) but I think 2 or 3 ottos should be fine.

thanks for the info. Next time i see some, will def by a couple and move cardinals into trigon (plated too, but work in progress)

Will DP's tollerate shrimp, or will the obvious occur?

 

[iSnail]

I keep mine with amano shrimps without much problem. They will nip the shrimps' antennae and legs if they are hungry. I've read some people have success with cherry shrimps too but be careful how you introduce the shrimps into the tank. The DPs might think it's dinner time
